Most climate scientists agree the main cause of the current global warming trend is human expansion of the greenhouse effect 1 â warming that results when the atmosphere traps heat radiating from Earth toward space. Certain gases in the atmosphere block heat from escaping.

Climate change is caused by factors such as biotic processes, variations insolar radiation received by Earth, plate tectonics, and volcanic eruptions.
